accompanied Lin Qingxia to Paris for a day, and the next morning, she came to the hotel café with a woman who exuded laziness and spring.

As soon as I arrived, I saw the waiter walking forward with a smile on his face: "Mr. Yang, Mr. Ma Dan is waiting for you at table 32." ”

Yang Huan came to the Ritz Hotel for the first time, but yesterday's incident was too exaggerated, and it caused a sensation in the hotel earlier, which naturally made the waiters and the hotel person in charge remember him.

Yesterday, Lin Qingxia went on a shopping spree, and each store bought hundreds of thousands of luxury goods, so naturally it was impossible to take it herself, and someone from the luxury store was responsible for delivering it to the hotel.

The luxury goods of about three million dollars are dazzling, especially those in the hotel.

"Thank you."

With Lin Qingxia, Yang Huan came to table 32, and a bald middle-aged man stood up and walked towards Yang Huan with a smile.

Yang Huan let go of Lin Qingxia and naturally hugged the other party: "Claude, long time no see." ”

"Yes, Yang, I've been looking forward to working together again. Now that this opportunity has come, thank you so much for your attention. By the way, who is this? ”

Claude Madan, the manager of the French publishing house Beran, went to Xiangjiang in person last time and negotiated with Yang Huan for the distribution rights of the French version of "Jurassic Park".

Although he didn't pay much, he has always been full of sincerity, which makes Yang Huan very grateful.

"This is my girlfriend, Lin Qingxia."

"Hello Miss Lin."

Lin Qingxia nodded gently: "Mr. Ma Dan, hello." ”

Her performance made Yang Huan breathe a sigh of relief, for fear that this girl would be dissatisfied with what he did last night and demolish him here.

"Thank you very much for Claude's help, people from our company have already contacted Gaumont Films, and they are also planning to represent the distribution of our company's films in France."

Claude laughed when he heard this: "This is not my credit, but the quality of your company's films itself is very good, which can be recognized by the Gaumeng company, otherwise my front line alone will not be finalized." I watched it yesterday at Gaumont Films, and it was an eye-opener. You're a genius, not only for your novels, but also for your movies. ”

Both of them spoke in English, and Lin Qingxia on the side could understand it, and she was very shocked because of this.

She didn't expect that Yang Huan would have such a way in France and be able to release movies in France. I heard that he went to England before, so I'm afraid he must have taken care of the affairs over there.

This guy is usually not serious, and he is not a good thing, but he didn't expect so many means. Many Hong Kong filmmakers have worked hard to release films in Europe, but this is difficult, but it is not as good as North America. Yang Huan can do it quietly, and this ability is enough to shock her. For a while, the woman's gaze at him became much weirder, and there was a faint hint of fire boiling.

"The Matrix, Claude must have seen it too, right? If the price is okay, we can sign a contract immediately. I've made an appointment with the lawyer, and I should be there in ten minutes. ”

Claude Madan still smiled: "Although the price of 30 million US dollars is a little higher, our publishing house is not unacceptable. ”

The $30 million here is not the kind of Penguin Press, but the French version is all published in copyright, and there is no print run or share.

In fact, if Yang Huan asks to talk about sharing now, the share will definitely not be low.

In fact, the use of French in the world is actually extremely widespread, with more than 80 million people worldwide speaking French and more than 200 million as a second language. It is used in several developed countries in Europe, North America, Africa and other places. Globally, there are really a lot of people.

But Yang Huan knows very well that in addition to the sales of several developed countries in Europe and Canada, it is really difficult to say how much can be sold in Africa and other places.

In addition, the sharing is too troublesome and the waiting time is too long, and the publishing house may also do some tricks to deceive him.

In this case, it is better to sell the copyright at one time, and it can quickly become its own strength.

Thirty million dollars seems like a lot, but the novel is published, including ordinary, hardcover, and collectible. The prices are also high, 30 million US dollars is very risky, but Yang Huan's previous "Jurassic Park" was already a big hit, and his fame was already there. "The Matrix" reappears, there is no need to reopen the market like the original, the investment is low, the fame has become bigger, and the price is naturally much higher.

The price of the item is a very illusory existence, and it has been affected a lot. That's why when someone buys and sells, they make profits and losses, and it all depends on their eyesight and tongue.

"Oh? Do you have any other requirements from your publishing house? ”

Claude nodded: "Yang, there should be no doubt about the strength of our Beran Publishing House, right?" ”

"Of course, I never doubted that."

"Therefore, this time, our publishing house hopes to win not only the copyright of the French version, but also German, Italian, Portuguese, etc., our publishing house hopes to gain something."

Last time, "Jurassic Park" made Beran Press a lot of money, and this time the idea of "The Matrix" is amazing, and naturally I don't want to let go of this opportunity.

The value of any work is different in different eras.

In today's era of scarce entertainment programs, books are the mainstream, and even have the same status as movies and television in a certain sense, and are even more important in the eyes of some people.

Science fiction works, which appeared twelve years in advance, sold even more in this era, when books were the mainstream.

After Beran Publishing House got the distribution rights of "Jurassic Park", it made a lot of money, and naturally did not want to let go of this opportunity to make a fortune.

"I'm sorry Claude, you know, I've always wanted my novels to be developed for film companies, and if they were all given to your publishers, it would affect my film plans."

Claude's face remained unchanged, still with a confident smile: "Yang, I understand what you mean, but Gaumont Film Company has the ability to distribute films throughout Europe, even if it is a film company in other countries, our publishing house also has contacts." A company can be responsible for everything, and has a good ability to save manpower, material resources and financial resources. Why do you have to find one in every nation? It's a waste of energy. ”

These words made Yang Huan suddenly, he had this idea before, but he still didn't want to do it, after all, it was a wide net, who knows if the negotiation will go well.

And now it seems too wasteful for him to give up publishing houses in other countries, after all, this line has been finally connected.

"I'm sorry, Claude, but I need to think about this."

Claude Madan's eyes lit up: "Actually, your method is really good, the publishing house holds a lot of copyrights, and the connection with the film company is good." But it's a waste of energy to negotiate with every country, and I don't think you are a person who doesn't know how to enjoy it, otherwise you wouldn't leave the negotiation to your subordinates. If you leave these distribution rights to our publisher, I can guarantee that you will be satisfied with the film company. ”

Yang Huan sighed: "Give me some time." ”

"Okay, it turns out that you hired lawyer Abel, and it just so happens that we can sign the copyright of the French version first."

"Claude, you're really bold enough, I like you like this."

"If you are as bold as me, I believe we will get along more happily."

Yang Huan was speechless, this guy is really it.
